Hey, I feel cheated!

Where's the companion cartoon where they all turned their backs on him on the aircraft carrier?

The media just doesn't get it. Had the word been leaked and the mission aborted, the media would have mocked Bush. Had Bush's plane been shot down, they would have had all kinds of post-mortem criticism for the "cowboy". In any outcome, he gets criticized. God they infuriate me.

I loved Stein's book. It is every bit as good a some bigger sellers.

Thanks for the reference, alfa6 - hope you get some rest.

Now there is a rogues gallery of Metrosexual Stooges.

Oh, they get it, alright. That's the way consuming hatred works. You find "reasons" to attack those you hate when they do "x," and you find reasons when they do non-x. Because the reasons are beside the point.

Was there really such a cartoon?

BTW - great post!

Thanks for posting this great comparison -- it will make a wonderful sign for future use.

Not that I know of. I was just being sarcastic, remembering how I watched it all live, how Bush gave them so much time to get pictures and video with their own personal cameras, a small point the morons won't acknowledge, of course.

Pretty nice compare and contrast thing you got going on. "seemed to enjoy seeing myself", what tense is that? Sounds like someting one would say about ones in-laws.

I dont take the NYT but i read it at times on line and that is usually because a fellow freeper wants us to check out an article. the paper stinks. i stopped taking the local paper here where i live too.but then again i knew how bad it was,i used to work there! HA what a joke most paper's have become.

the nation’s most influential newspaper ....

Excuse me. This must have been written wrong.

"...at one time, the nation's most influential newspaper..."

[Brad’s Gramma]

And yes, I don't doubt for a MINUTE they'd like to see this President out of the picture.

[Bullish]

Paybacks a bitch, huh?

Maybe Bush just didn't really feel like taking scumbag liars from the NY Times along. I know I wouldn't, and I bet they all had a much better time without 'em.

Besides, they have lost most of their credibility anyway. Lying and being wrong all the time will do that to you.

It's a pleasure to watch Bush kicking the gonads out of the faggots at the Times. They've sure got it coming to 'em.

"Any one of those (NYTimes) staffers (in Baghdad) might have willfully compromised the President’s security, or inadvertently done so, by heading to the airport, with assassins on his tail."

Wouldn't surprise me a bit to learn the Times staffers in Baghdad ARE the terrorists!

[#3Fan]

Only five reporters were permitted to accompany the president on Air Force One, none of whom works for the Times. They were Fox’s Jim Angle, Steve Holland of Reuters, Richard Keil of Bloomberg Business News, Terence Hunt of the Associated Press, the Washington Post’s Mike Allen,...

Why did Holland, Keil, Hunt, and Allen have to go? :^)

[Brad’s Gramma]

Ya know what THIS THREAD NEEDS??? Since we all KNOW we're being watched, monitored, whatEVER....I bring you...

[Brad’s Gramma]

THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! GEORGE BUSH!!!

[Libertina]

Excellent article!

[Libloather]

But what do I know?

Nothing.

'I would want to see the American get shot. It's the other guy's country.'”

I wonder if he feels the same way about illegal immigrants here?
